I think "1973" is one of the most beautifully crafted and melodic songs I have heard in a very long time, its just brilliant, and he even managed to fit in a reference to one of my favourite songs "I can see clearly now, the rain has gone" Fair play to him.
James Blunt is a man that does not listen to critics, he does what he wants to do and those who don't like it don't have to listen. The man is a an extremely talented songwriter and musician and he has my utmost respect! Sorry to be blunt, but go out there and try doing it yourself befire pushing someone in the gutter!
